I recommend the charcuterie. It's really good.

shrimp stuffed deviled eggs were pretty tasty. I would try some of those.

didn't care for the oyster dish I had as the batter was too greasy/soft

also had a lobster ravioli that fricking sucked. toughest lobster I've ever eaten and the manchego foam they put on it didn't go well at all

their menu changes often so you may have some different options from what I had

Pork belly is good.

All of the deserts are pretty good.

What's charcuterie, I'm not familiar.

Hangar steak And KFC wings look good and I've heard good reviews on their scallops as well.

I didn't care for the scallops- but I am not a cigar smoker. Charcuterie board is a collection of cured and pickled meats and veggies- pretty good there.

Does it actually taste like cigar smoke. My SIL was the one that suggested it and she doesn't smoke anything.

Tell them it is your birthday and you get a free app, the servers will sing to you as well. It is truly a magical experience.

No. They're actually pan-seared. Served in a closed cigar box that's been filled with cigar smoke. When it's presented, the box is opened with a puff a smoke. It's gimmicky, but still a good dish.
